Matylda is a feminine name of Germanic origin and serves as a variant of Matilda, which means "mighty in battle" from the elements 'maht' (might, strength) and 'hild' (battle). Popular in Eastern European countries, particularly Poland and the Czech Republic, Matylda has a classic yet distinctive quality. The name carries a sense of strength and determination, while maintaining feminine charm.
